Welcome to the forum. I am Canadian too (Toronto). I will try to give you a better reply when things are improved (not so good tonight). :o) I did want to welcome you, and say have a look around, read some of the stories on the quilt, and you can search the archives too under "Helen Dynda" for a wealth of info regarding adhesions.
We are here for you, and although sometimes a message gets missed or noone feels well enough to answer, just repost and we'll try again. I do hope you get proper pain management soon. Take care.
Wishing you pain free moments, hours and days.
